We travelled through the back canals of Bangkok in one of these dragon-tailed boats. We saw all the houses on stilts above the river. And what boat trip would be complete without a little souvenir lady paddling up next to our boat to offer us plastic elephants and photo albums?



Standing at the feet of the great lounging Buddha. I was asked to wear the shawl around my shoulders because I was wearing a tank top that wasn't "appropriate" for this Buddha, apparently. The bottom of this guy's feet are inlaid with Mother of Pearl.



The face of the reclining Buddha, the largest reclining Buddha in the world, at that.



One of the coolest Thai fruits- rambutan.
